Re: SI Article Thread -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From the way it sounds, insiders nailed this. It was "bad" but really nothing more then we already knew and nothing really ground breaking. RE: SI Article Thread -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I hate the vindictive media that would ALWAYS rather bring someone down than write something positive. Screw SI, I will never visit their site or read their magazine again. Hope others feel the same way Re: SI Article Thread -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So am I still A liar for saying that it wasn't what people were making it out to be? It's just more of the same, and not lack of control type stuff. Again...this is all tied to Tressel alone and are things that anyone will have a very hard time proving. More he-said-she-said than anything. Like I said, totally delusional.

Title: Re: Ohio State Fans Reaction to SI Article-Incredible Post by: Marshal Dillon on May 31, 2011, 11:08:34 AM Sounds exactly like lack of institutional control to me. That's exactly what it is. You can't have so much going on for 8 or 9 years and then say everything was under control or that it's no big deal.

Just because these Bozos saw nothing new doesn't mean it's not lack of institutional control. When the NZAA gets done with OSU, these same Bozos will be screaming for mercy along with the OSU top goons. Title: Re: Ohio State Fans Reaction to SI Article-Incredible Post by: Marshal Dillon on May 31, 2011, 11:21:54 AM What these delusional fans are missing is this is not about just 5 players. This is about over 20 players going back 8 or 9 years. In other words, a pattern of MAJR violations, which if you believe these fans, no one in the entire OSU athletic/compliance/administration areas knew about. Yeah right. The NCAA wll believe that.
Title: Re: Ohio State Fans Reaction to SI Article-Incredible Post by: BAMAWV on May 31, 2011, 11:54:13 AM Quote It wasn't this article that did Tressel in guys, the board of trustee's played a big part, especially Wexner. Right. The OSU BOTs waited until a Friday evening to withdraw their support of Tressel. Magically that Friday coincided with SI sending them faxes of the article to be run. :eye roll:SI took WAY to much credit for Tressel departing.

Stealing it from OSU or collecting from other players? I'm sure someone would have noticed when Pryor started needing extra gear all the time.

When you coach is told of it, and sweeps it under the rug to keep his best players eligible? That much is an "open and closed" case. What all exactly is going on, and how severe the punishment will be, are the only things left. Basically, we know it's passed man slaughter, and murder 2, and up to murder one. The question is, is it just murder one, to be punished with life in prison, or is it capital murder with "life without parole?" Or, do they get the chair????? To bad it was Michigan who's stadium is named, "The Big House" would be pretty fitting for their arch rivals right about now." Title: Re: Ohio State Fans Reaction to SI Article-Incredible Post by: pmull on May 31, 2011, 01:06:32 PM OSU fans really don't have anything to worry about. The NCAA will hit them with scholorship cuts and bowl sanctions. The interim coach will have a terrible year and OSU will go through 3 or 4 coaches over the next few years. Michigan, Penn State and Nebraska will own. Other than that it will not be bad.

Five Stages Of Grief 1.Denial and Isolation. At first, we tend to deny the loss has taken place, and may withdraw from our usual social contacts. This stage may last a few moments, or longer. 2.Anger. The grieving person may then be furious at the person who inflicted the hurt (even if she's dead), or at the world, for letting it happen. He may be angry with himself for letting the event take place, even if, realistically, nothing could have stopped it. 3.Bargaining. Now the grieving person may make bargains with God, asking, "If I do this, will you take away the loss?" 4. Depression. The person feels numb, although anger and sadness may remain underneath. 5.Acceptance. This is when the anger, sadness and mourning have tapered off. The person simply accepts the reality of the loss.
